Default Byron Fuel Question

Hey fellas.

A couple months ago i bought a quart of Byron Gen 2 30% nitro. The bottle said it had 9% lubrication. I loved the fuel, more so than anything else i've used, so i ordered 2 more quarts about a week ago of the exact same stuff. Only thing is, these two bottles say it has 11% lubrication. Anyone know what's up with that? Did they change something? Typo on one of the labels on the the bottle? Anyone know what the actual lubrication % is on these. I'm fine with both 9 and 11%, but i would prefer 9.

The 9% Byrons is "Pro driver gen2"......11% is "Gen2".

Thats whats weird. None of the stuff i ever bought was pro-driver. Just gen 2, still have the bottle. Maybe they just put the wrong label on. I will know for sure when i go to run my Savage. If i dont have to re-tune, guess it was a typo.

I know. I took your advice long ago, switching from O Donnels to Byron. My LHS only carries O donnel, thats why i have to order from AMain. I dont care if i have to wait a week and buy by the quart, i will never switch back to O Donnel or run anything with that much oil in it.
